We're off to Wonderful Winnipeg for the long weekend. No trip there is complete without a visit to a very venerable institution- Rae and Jerry's Steakhouse. This marvel is as frozen in time as the perfect icy slush barely there on their spectacular martinis. It is a fully functioning icon of the Rat Pack era, a little piece of the Palm Springs desert holding its own year after year in the the cold white north. Oh, and they know how to grill a mean steak. We'll take ours with creamed spinach and a side order of plump garlicky sauteed mushrooms!

In honour of our visit to Rae and Jerry's tonight, here's a little Sammy to set the mood!
